THE Diaspora community should continue rallying behind President Mnangagwa as he ushers the country into a new dawn of modernisation and development, Zanu PF Secretary for Information and Publicity, Cde Christopher Mutsvangwa, has said.
President Mnangagwa has always emphasised that the Diaspora community is a vital component in the country’s economic growth and development trajectory.
Addressing the Zanu PF United Kingdom District Executive council in London on Monday, Cde Mutsvangwa reaffirmed Zanu PF’s commitment to fulfilling its election promises.
“The President’s intention is to build the country’s economy and fulfil his election manifesto which led to Zanu PF’s victory in the 2023 harmonised elections,” he said.
Cde Mutsvangwa informed the party members in the UK that there were concerted efforts by the former colonisers who sought to destabilise the party leadership through social media, but President Mnangagwa continued to focus on developing the country and the region.
Cde Mutsvangwa said as the SADC chairman, President Mnangagwa and the East Africa Community (EAC) Chairperson Kenyan President William Ruto were persuading all parties in the Democratic Republic of Congo conflict to lay down arms and return the eastern parts of the resource-rich country to normalcy.
Since taking office in 2017, President Mnangagwa has demonstrated a proactive commitment to transforming Zimbabwe’s economy and infrastructure, aiming for an upper middle-class economy by 2030.

His administration has successfully completed over 8 000 projects nationwide, showcasing a vigorous approach to governance aligned with the “Vision 2030 of an upper middle-class economy”.
Upon assuming the reins of power, President Mnangagwa hit the ground running and implemented key strategies, starting with the launch of the Transitional Stabilisation Programme (TSP), which concluded in 2023.
This was followed by the National Development Strategy 1, the cornerstone of Vision 2030.
Under the guiding principles of “Nyika Inovakwa Nevene Vayo” (the country is built by its people) and “No one, No Place will be left Behind,” the President has fostered citizen participation in the development process, ensuring inclusive progress for all communities.
Under his leadership, Zimbabwe has seen notable advancements across various sectors.
In agriculture, the country achieved a record wheat output, surpassing the previous record set in 1964. This achievement not only bolsters food security, but also stimulates the agricultural economy significantly.
Major infrastructural initiatives, including the construction of power stations, roads, and the New Parliament building, along with improvements at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport, underscore the Government’s commitment to modernising the nation’s infrastructure.
Additionally, President Mnangagwa’s administration has prioritised issuing title deeds to farmers, allowing them to leverage their land for financing, thereby enhancing agricultural productivity and promoting financial independence.
